Why yet another related posts plugin doesn’t work for bbpress?

[Mark Smith]

Import Forums

Hi there,
I want to add a third <li>message</li> to the form-user-register.php file to advise users that their user status will be set to “Spectator” until it is reviewed and approved to “Participant” status.
I will also need to add my translation to the bbpress-de_DE-formal.po file as my site is in German.
As I have my own unique theme in /wp-content/themes/unique_theme/, where do i place the form-user-register.php file in order to add my third <li>message</li>?
As I don’t want it overwritten next time bbpress updates.
The same question to the .po file as this also needs to be edited.
thx in advance.

hmm… I cannot replicate this and have seen no change in behavior in bbpress that would explain.

what other bbpress or login related plugins are you using ?

[uksentinel]

so I had a play with those pluggins and alas not exacty what I was looking to achieve

To help clarify, this is NOT about previewing before posting. I am Wondering how to show the first X words of a thread or post as a tooltip when hovering over the thread link for example. Any plugins? Code? etc.

I have seen option for WordPress, but not for bbpress ?

Show Tooltip Preview of Thread when Hovering

[uksentinel]

A re bump incase it helps;

I am looking for a similar plugin as described in the below bbpress thread from 4 years ago regarding post previews for bbpress

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/preview-post/

Alas both bbp-live-preview and bbpress-live-preview are no longer supported ?

Any guidance most welcomed

I’m new to bbPress. I installed version 2.6.5 two days ago and have now created a basic forum, following the instructions in Part 1 of the Step-by-Step guide, to which I have added two topics. I read that the default view on the main Forum page should include an indented sub-list of topics but mine doesn’t. How do I make the sub-list of topics appear?

Hi Guys,

Extremely frustrating, I am using WP 5.5.1 and have installed bbPress to my site.

Recently the login widget has stopped working and as admin I cannot log out of the forum, my login is permanently shown on the site ?!?

Tried multiple re-installs and deleting WP pages but still, the problems remain.

Very grateful for all help!!!

Hi Hamed, the bbPress community always helps others. if I am not giving the right answer. Don’t worry, someone who is an expert will give correctly the answer.

Importing from phpBB ver 3.3.1 into bbPress ver 2.6.5 –

I get a “2. No users to import” warning.
I also get a loop, “8. Converting anonymous topic authors (100 through 100 of 100)”

Is anyone able to help? How much do you want?! I have deliberately not included the URL. If you can help I will provide it.

4000 users will be eternally grateful… (they do exist!)

Thanks,
Stewart

Thanks, Mark, but I’m not sure what you exactly said.

If you mean I ask Xenforo to help me, then that’s pretty much clear they won’t do anything about it. It’s like someone asks you to help him/her to migrate from bbpress to Xenforo. Will you do it? of course not! Why should they help me upgrade your plugin in order to support migrating from their latest version of forum software to yours? (logically they will help those who are using your forum, to migrate to their forum. Not the other way around)

But if I misunderstood, would you mind clarifying it, please?

Hi
I didn’t reinstall bbpress, and when I deleted the role it wasn’t deleted? Why? Did it leave the database table?

[smith512]

Hello
I tried to add a new forum, This error appeared.

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 163840 bytes) in /home/vnyeklac/public_html/wp-includes/class-wp-object-cache.php on line 446

I looked at https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/php-fatal-error/ .
However I cannot solved this problem.

What should I do?
Thanks for watching.

My bbpress version is 2.6.5
php version is 7.4
wordpress version is 5.5.1
All latest version

for clarity the reasons it is left are to do with reinstalling bbpress, which since you have deleted means you can delete the role

So, I tried “bbPress WP Tweaks” instead of Custom Sidebars. At first it didn’t work, either. But then I tried a different wrapper… the sidebars were in index.php and now it works.

[lxking]

I can’t seem to get bbPress to display sidebars on its forum pages in the Twenty-Seventeen theme. I’m using the “Custom Sidebar” plug-in to give me a specific sidebar for bbPress pages. The sidebar is displayed properly if I switch to the Twenty-Sixteen theme, but not Twenty-Seventeen.

I’m on WordPress v. 5.5.1
I have bbPress v. 2.6.5
Custom Sidebars v. 3.2.3
Here’s my site: https://www.cslportland.org/

Note, I also tried making all of my plugins inactive (except for bbPress and Custom Sidebars) to see if that would help. I still could not get a sidebar to appear on forum pages.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. I really need the sidebar to facilitate using the bbPress forum.

Hi Heroyouwi, I hope you are happy to answer this. I have tried your phpbb 3.2.9 fix bbpress import script and sadly it failed. I am using phpBB 331 and the latest bbPress. What is the likely issue?
Many thanks.

My website name: mimarlar.online . I created a special forum for Turkish architects with bbpress Is there an easy way to make a mobile app for bbpress? What I want is very simple. Do you know of a paid or free company or web service that does this? thnks for all..

[Robin W]

bbpress leaves this behind for reasons I won’t bore you with.

Without bbpress, the role has nothing it can do, so you can just leave it.

If you want to get rid of it (and I can understand if you do) then it is just a wordpress role, so see

How to Delete User Roles from a WordPress Site

[uksentinel]

I have noticed this on other forum medias such as Xenforo, is there a plugin etc. to show via a popup window the contents of first post in a given topic when a user hovers over a topic ?

I have had a good look at plugins etc, just hopefully something already created ?

Thanks

[Mark Smith]

Uninstall bbPress: Please follow this
Log into your WordPress back-end.
Go to Plugins > Installed Plugins.
Scroll down until you see bbPress and click Deactivate.
After the page reloads, scroll back down to the bbPress plugin, now click the red Delete link.
You will now see a screen to confirm your deletion of the bbPress plugin, if you are sure you want to remove bbPress from your installation, hit the OK. button.
bbPress is now uninstalled from your site.

I need a little help with the BBpress converter. I am importing data (4000 users) from a phpBB (latest version) database in the locahost database. The converter consistently just goes straight to ‘Stopped’ no matter what I do.

Where is the log for this utility so I can debug?

Thanks,
Stewart

[gm4aff]

It is extremely disappointing not to have had any reply to this question. I have reached the point where I have upgraded phpBB to the latest version and moved the original phpBB data to the new server so I can run the import to and from the ‘localhost’, and still it fails. I am 100% confident that everything is correct.
What really gets me is the lack of feedback. The application just says ‘Stopped’ every time I try something. Every time. Is there a log somewhere?

If I don’t get some sort of help or guidance soon I will simply give up on BBPress and WordPress. Surely there is someone who knows what’s going on?

Thank you in anticipation.
